i don't know that i'd say he's completely worthless though. the spurs coaching staff opted to go with offense over defense last year so bowen saw very little playing time (as he's limited offensively) and finley saw big time minutes.

what i did see though, when bowen did see time on the court, is that he's still a talent.

one of the high points i remember from last season was bowen getting out there and locking up j j barrea. i don't think barrea's that great a player, but he is quick as ****. and for bowen to be able to get out there, just a mere few months ago, and chase that guy around says something about what he can still do.
